Welcome to Day 3 of the sneak peeks for the Kraftin' Kimmie June release!! By now, you've seen some gorgeous mermaids and some adorable little mice on the Krafty Girls' blogs....are you loving them?? As always, you'll find a list of the Krafty Girls participating in today's previews on the Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps Blog.
If you're just joining us on the previews now, you can still hop around to previous posts on the Krafty Girls' blogs to catch up on what you've missed. We have one more day of sneak peeks planned during our challenge this Saturday, followed by Release Day on Sunday June 13th!! Hope you plan to join us for the Release Day Blog Hop!
Did you hear the great news?? Kimmie is releasing a fantastic Summer Mermaid Stamp Kit that will be available exclusively from Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps Online Store starting this Sunday! Included in this kit will be SIX stunning mermaids by Annie Rodrigue, a bunch of accessory stamps and a great sentiment set!! You should plan to grab yourself one of these kits quickly to take advantage of the great price! The stamps will eventually be released individually, but if you wait until then you will be missing out on Kimmie's limited time special offer of a 20% discount!
Allow me to introduce you to the lovely Calliope! These mermaids are so much fun to colour. I jazzed up her tail and fins with Smooch Illuminate and Stickles (I did the same with Marina a couple of days ago...you can see that post here). I used a combination of papers from my scrap bin and October Afternoon, and sponged them all with a bit of Bundled Sage Distress Ink. The sentiment is part of the Summer Mermaid Stamp Kit.
Skin: E13, E21, E25, E29, E50 Hair: 100, C7, C5, B60 Tail and fins: YR00, YR02, YRo4, YR07, Eo8, E33, Y06 Octopus: RV00, V04, V07, C5
I hope to see you back tomorrow for our weekly challenge...I'll have a preview of another mermaid from the Summer Kit!
Blessings,
Melanie
